Marvelous Considering Wii To PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 Ports

By Spencer . July 2, 2009 . 1:08am

Marvelous Entertainment backed the Wii in a big way with new series like Little King’s Story, No More Heroes, Arc Rise Fantasia, and Muramasa: The Demon Blade. However, sales of these games in Japan (Little King’s Story excluded, of course, since it’s only out in Europe) haven’t been stellar.

 

In a financial presentation Marvelous has a new plan for their rich library of properties. First, is moving into multi-platform PlayStation 3 / Xbox 360 development. I can confirm that Rainy Woods, Marvelous’ first title specifically made for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, is still in development. Their other strategy is porting some of their Wii titles to the PS3 and Xbox 360.

 

Muramasa: The Demon Blade and Arc Rise Fantasia aren’t heavy on motion control so I imagine these would be prime candidates to port. I’d welcome ports of either of these games too since more people would get to play them.

 

Enough about me. Which Marvelous games would you like to see on high definition consoles? I’ll start counting the votes for No More Heroes and No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle…

Xbox 360 wants to Kinect &  PS3 wants to Move!  Why are both systems having such relationship problems?  The reason is they both become so infactuated with desire while watching the Wii as it waggles on by. They simply want what they can't have.

Since that is an article I posted I just want to say that my picks would be Muramasa:The Demon Blade, No More Heroes Series, Arc Rise Fantasia and Rune Factory Frontier perhaps. Some of the best standout japanese titles for the Wii are coming from Marvelous. Would Wii owners be ok with sharing these wonderful titles with the rest of us? I don't know about some of you guys but the games I mentioned...I would simply kill to play them on my PS3 and/or X360!

I would love to play Muramasa and Rune Factory Frontier on the PS3 (though simply in principle because I wouldn't buy them a second time, or at least it's very unlikely).
If there is an announcement about Arc Rise Fantasia soon enough, I will wait for a HD version instead of buying the Wii one, same with Little King's Story.
